So I would pull the crown part way and set the hour hand to match the time on northern globe to EST. In your pic it looks like 2 AM. Then I would use the pusher on the side to set your second time zone to 2 AM also just to sync everything up. Once it’s all synced up, pull the crown all the way out and set the time, the globes should both turn as you do this.
Then as you travel, pull the crown part way to set the hour hand to your local time. Just fedex it down here and I’ll set for you:) Last edited by dbfagan; 31 December 2019 at 01:54 PM.. Reason: Update |

Seriously? Are you winding us up? The Northern one is what lies above the Equator, and the Southern one… Hemisphere = half a sphere. The map image is as viewed from directly over each Pole. |

I actually don’t understand the point of the 2 spheres... I get the 2 time zones The main hour and minuets and the 2nd time zone at 9 o’clock. But what I don’t understand what the northern time zone and silouthern time zone spheres are for. Like does that tie to either one of the 2 time zones? |

Ok then…
The Hemispheres will let you see what time it is elsewhere in the world; it’s more than a Dual Time watch. Granted the red dots are for the mountain peaks in those parts of the world that make up the summit challenge which this watch celebrates, but if you know your world map, then you’ll have a fair idea what time of day it is in certain cities. If you look at the Northern Hemisphere, you can see that the time currently in CA is about 11:30 in the evening. The more prominent white line is GMT (London/Dublin/etc), and currently it’s around 7:30 in the morning. The ‘Star’ indicates that Mumbai, in India, is at noon. That all said, ultimately this is a watch almost purely for climbers, who may aspire to conquering the challenge or have already done so. It’s not exactly a WT in the sense/format most of us would be familiar with. |

Seems like too much effort to tell time...

As a World Timer, yes… but as a novelty dual time, then it has its place, and maybe that’s where it’ll find its level with buyers. |
